Designing Websites for Wedding Photographers

I design unique and cutting-edge websites for wedding photographers.

I was once a wedding photographer myself with over 1,500 weddings under my belt. I have since retired from that very active and creative business. I now design fully custom websites for wedding photographers.

I know how important it is for you to show your best work on this live portfolio store front. I have a number of tricks, strategies and idea’s that will set your website apart from other wedding websites. The website I design is not a template but something I design from the ground up with your input.

Your images are a BIG deal…

… that is what sets you apart from other photographers, but I can show them in the best way possible through the use of cutting-edge web design. I like to integrate your business social media in unique ways that links your work forward and backward, so you can get the most mileage out of all your photography.

I set up a blog inside your website and teach you the best way to use this amazing tool to drive traffic to your website on a regular basis. SEO is a big deal there also as well as tagging all your photographs with the right focus keywords.

I can also set up the best SEO (search engine optimization) strategies and integrate them into each and every page of the website as well as each image that you post to a blog or website page. After all, what is the point of having a beautiful most amazing website if it cannot be found on search engines like Google, Yahoo and Bing.

I have a degree in graphic arts…

… and I use these skills in the process of designing the website but also logo and other business-related material to help your photography business grow.

If you have an existing website that needs help or looks old and dated I can redesign it a bring in all these techniques with me. I only design websites on WordPress because I feel it’s the best platform in use today.

The following sections or segments are from a real wedding photographers website. Everything is functional if you click on the individual parts.

The these three images are not just photographs but also link to different parts to the website. The first two, Weddings and Engagements, will take you to a carrousel of images that this photographer is displaying of their best work.

The third one, Featured Weddings takes you to a page that has photo links that will connect to different photo blog articles of whole complete weddings at different venues that the photographer has taken. This is a great way of killing two birds with one stone. You all ready use your blog to show whole individual weddings, why not advertise it right on a website page.

Like I said before, I am a graphic artist so I have used this knowledge to design these text / photo modules as links.

The long wide image directly above…

…is called a rotating slider. We use it to not only display some very cool wedding photographs but also of testimonies that the photographer has received from the bride and groom. We also have a a separate website page with many more testimonies but we also like to sprinkle a few here and there through out the site on different pages.

By clicking each image below connects to its counterpart on Instagram or Pinterest. You can read more on the background of that image there.

These square images above are linked to this photographers Instagram and Pinterest account. Each image links to its counterpart on those social media. Each one gives a much more detailed explanation about where that image was taken and the story behind it.

You need to set up these business social media accounts in Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest and YouTube anyway to promote your wedding photography so why not set up a great visual photo link to display your work right on a website page.

These 3 different examples will give you an idea of the creative cutting edge ideas we use to design awesome wedding photographer websites. We have many, many more.
